This being my first expensive toy I've owned, I can promise you I have less in it than you have spent on all the cars you've owned and modded over the years.

There's times when I have buyers remorse. Of course if I knew 2 years ago what I know now, I'd be driving a 2013 GT500, or a GTR or even Erik's car, but, I have enjoyed almost every second behind the wheel of my car.

I got lucky and sold mine before I went down the rabbit hole you went down... sure I bought some Corvettes but I sold them with very little money out of pocket, even after modding... I woulda thrown 20 grand away EASILY had I kept my Cobra.

Yeah, it adds up quick. Before I bought the car I thought, "Hey, the motor is more or less built, so I don't have to do that"

Then factor in DOHC motors cost twice as much for everything, even 4x as much in some cases. Shoulda bought an LSx. haha

Oh well, what's done is done. I'm almost done with the turbo build and she's gonna stay that way for a while. Trying to get a new job making about twice what I'm currently bringing in. I figure if I land it, within a year or two I can have L&M build a real motor for it.
